Abstract
The radial profile of the poloidal field inside the plasma column was measured in TOKASTAR-2 using a multichannel magnetic probe with 10 sensors in the radial direction. The position of the current center and its movement were observed. The oscillation in the plasma radial position was suppressed using the helical magnetic field.
